At "J Village" in Fukushima Prefecture, where the Tokyo Olympic torch relay will start on the 25th, employees are preparing for the venue by weeding and picking up trash.

The Tokyo Olympic torch relay is scheduled to start in Fukushima Prefecture on the 25th, and the departure ceremony will be held at "J Village", which straddles Naraha Town and Hirono Town, which will be the first starting point.



At "J Village", about 30 employees gathered on the morning of the 24th to pluck grass along the place where the torchbearer actually runs and pick up garbage such as PET bottles and cigarette butts.



In addition, at the dome-shaped practice area where the departure ceremony was held, the people in charge were busy preparing for the event, such as setting up exhibits near the entrance.



Hisaya Tsurumoto, Managing Director of "J Village," said, "I did a cleanup activity because I wanted to make it even a little better. The world is still in a difficult situation, but I have been waiting for this day. I want to do it. "
